New Views on R. Buckminster Fuller

A serious scholarly look at the work of R. Buckminster Fuller is long overdue. While Fuller himself wrote and published many volumes, and several biographies have been written about him, there is little research that contributes to a critical understanding of his work and its historical significance. This volume paints that picture by taking a broader historical view, discussing Fuller and his work in the context of larger social and cultural patterns. By placing Fuller and his work in a historical framework, we will arrive at a much richer understanding of both this self-made polymath and his times. This fresh, contextual look at Fuller's work from leading scholars in different fields is an important step toward filling the void of serious scholarship on Fuller.
